In Android, you can use PackageManager , hasSystemFeature() method to check if a device has camera, gps or other features.
See full example of using PackageManager in an activity class.
package com.mkyong.android;
 
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.pm.PackageManager;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.util.Log;
 
public class FlashLightActivity extends Activity {
 
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
//setContentView(R.layout.main);
 
Context context = this;
PackageManager packageManager = context.getPackageManager();
 
// if device support camera?
if (packageManager.hasSystemFeature(PackageManager.FEATURE_CAMERA)) {
//yes
Log.i("camera", "This device has camera!");
}else{
//no
Log.i("camera", "This device has no camera!");
}
